Question

Hazika bought a scarf and a dress. The dress cost 6 times as much as the scarf. The dress costs $141. She gave the cashier $200. How much change did she receive?​

Answer 1

$35.50, because the dress costs 6x more than the scarf which means you would take the price of the dress and divide by 6 which gets you $23.50 and then you would add $141 + $23.50 which gets you $164.50. She gave the cashier $200, so take the $200 minus what the total price is which gets you $35.50
